Background and overview[1]
Fluorophenyl acetonitrile is a phenylacetonitrile compound. Phenylacetonitrile compounds have a wide range of uses. For example, phenylacetonitrile can be used as a raw material for the production of phoxim, Daofengsan, penicillin, phenobarbital and Kebiqing drugs. 4-Fluorophenyl acetonitrile can be used to prepare aprepitant. Aprepitant is a highly selective neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist that binds to neurokinin-1 receptors in the brain to exert antiemetic effects.
Preparation[1-2]
Report 1,
Add 0.3mmol cuprous iodide and 0.3mL toluene solvent into the reaction tube, stir for 1 minute; then add 0.5mmol K4[Fe(CN)6], 1mmol p-fluorobenzyl chloride and 0.7mL toluene. After sealing the reaction tube, stir at 180°C for 20 h. After the reaction system is cooled to room temperature, add 1 mL of acetophenone in dichloromethane (0.8 mmol/mL) as an internal standard, stir evenly and leave it for more than 1 hour. Take the supernatant for gas chromatography analysis. The yield is 85%. The theoretical value of the molecular ion peak (M+) of p-fluorobenzene acetonitrile is 135.05, and the measured value is 135.1.
Report 2,
Add 0.75 mmol of potassium cyanoacetate into the vacuum reactor. The molar dosage is 0.2% of the electrophilic substrate molar dosage of allyl palladium chloride (Pd2(p-allyl)20.01 mmol of Cl2) catalyst and 0.03 mmol of S-Phos phosphine ligand in a molar amount of 0.6% of the electrophilic substrate, evacuated, passed high-purity argon, replaced three times, and placed in the argon flow Under protection, add 0.5 mmol of the electrophilic substrate 1-chloro-4-fluorobenzene and the solvent trimethylbenzene (the amount of solvent is 2 ml of solvent per mmol of the electrophilic substrate), place it at 140°C, and heat and stir for 10 hours. After purification treatment, p-fluorobenzene acetonitrile is obtained.
